“It's definitely worth visiting! The staff is amazing, I took cash out so I didn't need to use my card when we visited the gift shop, but I was short 84 cents no biggie was gonna use my card, but the lady insisted I not use my card for such a small amount and she would cover it. I bought my tickets off the website for $15, but there is an ebt discount for $3 a ticket. The exhibits were great, and my son had a blast! Will definitely b back!”

“Our son had been going here for a year and we love it. The teachers are caring and attentive, the kids are well taken care of. They have multiple games and activities through out the day and the daycare uses an app that posts pictures, meals, diapers and naps so you get a good sense of how your child’s day went.”

“Our daughter loves it here. They have taught her sign language. She loves the teachers and often does not want to leave because she is loving the game they have created. I appreciate how the staff is consistent and she has connections with her teachers.”

“Took my 4 year old daughter here for daycare after moving to Lacey. It was really hard to find a suitable place for my very social and energetic daughter ! They were patient, worked with all of us when she had her standard 4 year old girl tantrums! They have been so gracious and a godsend ! Would highly recommend to anyone!!”

“A welcoming and wonderful place for our child. We couldn't ask for more in a daycare program and facility. We love and care about these special caregivers so much!”

“Absolutely pleased with the level of care here. We kept our son home for the first year and a half and decided he needed the daily social interaction with kids his age that daycare can provide- since starting in February he has just been thriving in his social skills, his speech, everything. He’s happy and comfortable with the staff members. They’re quick to call if anything happens- I had a voicemail when my son’s fingers got pinched in a door because he snuck up very quickly when it was being shut - he was fine they iced his fingers and called me immediately which I really appreciated. They’re just very attentive and professional here. Your kids are in great hands here, no need to think twice if you’re looking for a daycare.”

“My daughter has been at ECS since preschool. The teachers are passionate about teaching and very creative! All staff at ECS work to know your child's name and interests throughout the entire school :) from the principal to the front desk to the PE teacher to all the teachers and pastors. I was impressed by that! They also find interesting ways to incorporate learning from Shark Tank to Young Author to Knowledge Bowl competitions. My daughter has grown spiritually, academically, and emotionally at this school and I am thankful to all ECS staff from the office to car monitors to teachers to principal! I appreciate their commitment to excellence! I echo that this school offers many programs to add to the educational experience, including foreign language, orchestra, band, arts, chess, and a variety of sports with the option to start some of them in 5th grade :) There are also annual family oriented events, including the Fall Festival, Father/Daughter Dance, Mom/Son Nerf Night, STEAM night, and Fine Arts Festival that includes the Young Authors, as well as, anti bullying lunches and golf tournament:). My daughter is moving onto High School next year. We are so thankful for the good seeds planted in her at this school! We support ECS and will continue to do so into the future:)”

“So far, so good! We have our 8 month old baby enrolled and it has only been about a month and a half for him, but we’re pleased so far. Teachers and all staff are all welcoming, friendly, and helpful. Ms. Stacie and Ms. Kenadee are experienced in childcare and do great at communicating issues, needs, and providing helpful updates and tips. Director Lisa has been fantastic about answering questions and making us feel comfortable and welcome. Our baby has made leaps and bounds in his development since starting.Our baby’s day is well tracked (how much he eats, every diaper change, every nap, etc.) and we love the picture updates throughout the day. They even let us sit in for a little while before starting for us all to get comfortable. I was a nervous mess before having him start daycare but when he gets a big smile on his face when he comes into the classroom in the morning and comes home happy, I know he’s well-cared for and enjoys it.”

“I have worked at city kids for going on 15 years and it’s an amazing place to work Kirsten is a great person as well as boss I would not want to work anywhere else other than here and I have worked for other daycares in the past ??”

“Cadence Academy is wonderful! The teachers are so kind and understanding. I'm thankful for all the staff and the peace of mind I have knowing my daughter is in such great care.”

“This place is amazing. If you are looking for childcare at the absolute highest quality, there is in the south sound. This is the place to go. I am so fortunate to have my children in the center. The staff the Director everything about it exceeds my expectations. If you want a center that you can trust and know that your child is being loved seen and heard then this is the place to be. Allison and Amanda are excellent leaders and their staff is a direct reflection of that.”
